Saddam accuses UN experts of 'spying'
2003-01-06
Middle East Online
Iraqi President Saddam Hussein accused UN arms inspectors on Monday of engaging in spying and charged that the United States was plotting to "occupy" the oil-rich Gulf region. "Instead of searching for so-called weapons of mass destruction in order to expose the lies of the liars, the inspection teams have been compiling lists of Iraqi scientists, asking questions with undeclared purposes, and inquiring about army camps and non-prohibited armament," Saddam said. "All this, or at least most of it, is sheer intelligence activity," he said in a televised speech marking the country's Armed Forces Day.
Well, go ahead, Sammy. Kick 'em out... Heh heh.

#2  No one cares much what the Dear Leader does right now, but people are watching and taking notes. Iraq now - North Korea later.
